Here is Vladimir Mineev fighting 13 year veteran Xavier Foupa-Pokam at Fight Night - Battle of Moscow 19 which took place on 6/11/15.
Mineev (5-0) is an interesting middleweight prospect with an extensive kickboxing record having won titles in WKN, WKA and WAKO-Pro heavyweight divisions. Kickboxing records not involving K-1 are notoriously sketchy, and while his is listed at 24-2, he likely has a few unrecorded bouts. Mineev's grappling will need to improve dramatically to make it to the next level.
Xavier "Professor X" Foupa-Pokam (32-21) has career wins over several legit MMA veterans, including a submission win over UFC vet Tom Watson, flying knee KO over TUF vet Kasey Uscola and decision win over BAMMA champ Jack Marshman.

Leg Scissors - Couture v. Bird
Here is Kim Couture fighting Sheila Bird at AX Combat 1 - Execution which took place on 7/8/11 in Calgary, Canada.
This fight is notorious for a late stoppage by the ref. Leg scissors are a rare but brutal submission. Bird hasn't fought since 2012, finishing 3-0 as a pro and 1-0 as an amateur.
